I. UNPACKING, ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTION .
A. UNPACKING.
Your new V42DD Hot Air Welder is delivered to you in a sturdy, reuseable polymer tool box. The custom
designed foam base and spacers assure that your machine is protected and arrives ready to assemble
and use.
Remove the machine by lifiting it straight up and out and set it on a horizontal surface. The 2 additional
10 lb. weights are packed in cut-outs under the machine with foam covers on top.
Remove the foam covers from the weights and place them into the cut-outs for reuse after removing the
weights. Return all of the foam pieces to the box for later use during transportation and storage.
The only assembly required is to thread the handle into its base on the frame and tighten it down with the
lock nut, and attach an appropriate twist-lock plug to the end of the cord as described below.
B. ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS.
Rating: 230VAC at 20 AMP The Eagle will operate within a range of 210VAC to 250VAC. Checking the
voltage at the point of unit plug-in is critical to the performance of your welder. You can perform the
voltage check with built in voltmeter.
Caution: YOU ARE WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT. DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY
MAY OCCUR DURING OR AFTER EQUIPMENT CONNECTION. UTILIZE A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN.
Generators: Minimum 7,500 Watt Portable Generators should be used as a power source for each Eagle
V42DD automatic unit in use. Building electrical outlets are a poor source of voltage because they are too
unpredictable. Even when they are dedicated circuits, power spikes and drops can occur, resulting in
sub-standard equipment operation.
A Minimum 7,500 Watt watt capacity for the generator provides a measure of protection against
insufficient voltage. Remember, the Eagle utilizes 4,200 watts so the guage and length of your extension
cord will affect the wattage requirement.
Extension Cords: Extension cord should be at least 10 Gauge, 3 wire, grounded cable.
Do not splice lengths of cable together. This is a serious safety hazard, and can cause a poor connection,
resulting in sub-standard machine performance. Maximum Extension Cord Lengths:
Voltage @ power source 10 Gauge, 3 wire 12 Gauge, 3 wire
208VAC 100 Feet 50 Feet
220VAC 300 Feet 100 Feet
230VAC 400 Feet 200 Feet
240VAC 500 Feet 300 Feet
C. PLUG CONNECTION.
A Three-prong(L6-30) Twist Lock plug with a rating of 30 Amps and 250VAC is required.
Eagle is shipped with a L6-30 plug (Part#HBL2621). An extension cord is required between generator
and eagle. A plug and receptacle with a rating of 30 Amps and 250VAC must be purchased and properly
installed. The purchased plug must fit the generator outlet (usually L14-30).
100 feet 10 gauge, 3wires extension cord furnished with L14-30 Plug and L6-30 Receptacle can be
purchased with the Eagle Unit. (Part#10-3-100)
The white and black wires from the cord set of the welder must be connected to the appropriate "X" and
"Y" terminals in the plug to obtain the proper voltage. The green wire must be connected to the ground
terminal of the purchased plug.
The voltmeter on the control box must read 210 Volts as a minimum and 250 Volts as a maximum
for proper operation.
